Driving Through Des Plaines

Des Plaines holds a unique place in the history of modern America as the home to entrepreneur Ray Kroc's original McDonald's restaurant. Fans of both the Golden Arches and Americana can tour the museum and see where the fast-food franchise really started to take hold in the U.S. If the visit to the McDonald's from 1955 gets you nostalgic, drive just one-half mile south to Dad's Slot Cars. Slot car racing was all the rage in the early-to-mid 20th century, and at Dad's you can enjoy some fast-paced racing action while savoring a banana split. If you need to unwind a little after all the '50s-themed action, head downtown where you can catch a flick at the 91-year old Des Plaines Theatre, grab a bite, or unwind with a cocktail at one of the local watering holes. To really kick your Illinois vacation into high gear, head southeast for 21 miles to Chicago. Getting to Chicago is a snap: either rent a car in Des Plaines and drive there, or take a Metra commuter train or Pace bus to the city and get one of the cheap rental cars in Chicago.
